Day 32 31st July Munglinup to Esperance

Second fantastic down wind ride in a row.  Again averaged over 30km/hr again. (the fastest team averaged 35km/hr).

Many of the group are leaving the ride at Esperance so the opportunity was taken to take group photos whilst at morning tea.  All those leaving will be missed.  Some will join again for the last couple of day into Sydney.

 

 B team.  Includes two riders over 75yrs

 International riders (l to r  Bruno, Matea (Italy), Simone, Mike (NZ))


We are now half way though the ride in days and on Friday we pass the half way make in distance.  Time seems to be going so fast.  Still a few days before we leave WA though.

'Juliet' (Robyn's bike) had her first run this afternoon.  A few of us rode with Robyn along the foreshore bike path here at Esperance.  This certainly is a pretty town and the coast line is spectacular.

Move over Anna Meares

  Tomorrow is a day off again so will explore a bit more (after the laundramat, bike maintenance, etc.  My bike has been running well with no problems other than three flats.  A few other have had some issues that need repairs (broken spokes, cracked rims etc).  All will need to be in good shape by Friday as the next bike shop is in Port Augusta about 2,000km away.
